OK, so using unarchived and closed channels is preferred.

We dont have artificially invent issues. It is a completely public
channel. Archives are available if you want them.

Actually, this is a little more than artificially invented issue. The
problem with IRC is that conversations take place in real time.
This is a problem for projects that may have particepants in different
parts of the world with different time zones.

Sure but that is a completely different issue which in no way makes the
channel closed. It is not hard to setup bots which automatically
archives all the conversations in the channel. I suspect there might
already be public services which do just that.
